(Anonymous) 2013-07-22 12:10 am (UTC)(link)I can understand judging it on principle, but I have trouble believing you had such a close relationship with an infant, that isn't yous.

(Anonymous) 2013-07-22 01:22 am (UTC)(link)Just because you aren't close with your extended family doesn't mean other people aren't really close with theirs.
Also, how close a relationship do you need to have with a baby before you can be pissed as hell at the persons who's grossly negligent actions led to that baby's death?

I did go to the baby shower, I did babysit when the kid got shafted to my uncle, and I did hold my mother while she cried after paying for the casket. Druggies spread their misery and toxicity around.
I find it presumptuous that you judge my feelings for a dead baby. Even if this kid was no relation to me at all I would feel mad.

(Anonymous) 2013-07-22 02:57 am (UTC)(link)And that's a perfectly valid feeling, but what you've been doing in most of this thread is pretty much saying addicts deserve no sympathy based on your personal experience. In which case, your personal experience becomes relevant, you open yourself up to criticism and yes, the personal experience of your cousin ALSO become relevant.
So let's break this down
- Not every addict is like your cousin
- Your cousin has an illness, whether you wish to acknowledge it or not.
- Becoming an addict is not a "choice"
- Terrible things done accidentally by someone who is not of sound mind are not the same as things done by someone maliciously with premeditation.
- Your hurt is justified, but does not negate the hurt your cousin might be feeling.
- You're free not to sympathize, but that doesn't mean anyone can't, and certainly not that no addict is ever deserving of sympathy.
